00:50:21Australian Design RadioyesMichael Wong (aka Mizko) joins us in the studio to talk about entrepreneurism, start-up culture and growing up a hustler. Professionally he’s a UI/IX expert, internationally known and awarded. He’s recently formed Raw Studio, with his good friend Philippe Hong, so we get into that and go deep on their process, looking at how they build relationships with clients.
We also delve into Michael's past and look at the experiences that formed Mizko. Growing up, somewhat of an outsider, we were keen to understand where his incredible energy and motivation came from. It’s a great story of never-ending optimism and seeing the opportunity in everything.
As always, much love to Streamtime — we love you guys. If you haven’t tried them out, do it now. Unsurprisingly, they were shortlisted for this year's Webbys. We have our fingers and toes crossed. ADR listeners get a special discount by following this link: streamtime.net/adr2020

00:47:28Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Andrew Hochradel.
Andrew is a brand identity designer from Los Angeles, CA, who creates visual systems that are sustainable, innovative, and engaging. He's often found speaking, teaching and entertaining at physical and online events like Adobe Live, CreativeMornings, Creative South and Circles.
Andrew's ability to entertain and teach is what got us talking in the first place, and this episode is no departure, we spoke about teaching online vs the classroom, stirring up creativity in others, semiotics, emu's and more.

01:00:31Australian Design RadioyesThis episode we are teaming up with Andrew Johnstone from TAKE Magazine to interview the Chief Photographer of The Sydney Morning Herald, Nick Moir.
Known as the ‘fire guy’, Nick has built a reputation on capturing award-winning imagery and being in the right place, at the right time. He passes it off as being lucky, but the passion of his descriptions and depth of his research suggests it's more about his genuine commitment and love of the profession.
Beginning at SMH at the tender age of 17, Nick co-founded the Oculi collective with other well-known documentary photographers. We look at why a group like this was needed and how it has evolved through the evolution of the web and social media. We touch on storm chasing and end up discussing the fires that dominated headlines at the end of 2019. Hearing Nick relate the experience gives you an insight into an event we shouldn’t soon forget. If you haven’t seen his work we’d suggest you check it out while you are listening to get the full experience.

00:46:18Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Alex Skougarevskaya, Design Manager for Atlassian Design System.
Alex has had just about every job title designer can have, from her start as a 'graphics monkey' to a 'speck' in the big world of Advertising before the Global Financial Crisis. She's been a web, visual, graphic and interactive designer before moving her way over to Atlassian.
We spoke to Alex in the lead up to her talk at NoBs conference where she'll be talking about the Atlassian Design System, so we spoke a bit about working with teams around the world to her new adventure moving to San Francisco.

00:49:22Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Tegan Wotton, Design Director at Space Between in Melbourne.
Tegan has an interesting career path which we get stuck into straight away, growing up in the bush has given her a strong connection to her home and what the idea of home can be. Unsurprisingly she has found herself working with a band of likeminded designers at Space Between Melbourne, where is the design director.
Outside of her design role, she also co-hosts the Melbourne chapter of Ladies Wine Design, we touch on the importance of networks and space like this for women and non-binary people and spent some time talking about Eat Town, another side project of hers. Eat town is dedicated to cataloguing the best places in China town to eat. She even has a ramen tattoo.

00:51:53Australian Design RadioyesEP117 WITH Johanna, Matt and Flyn
It’s that time of the year when everyone is winding down for Christmas… who are we kidding, everyone is frantically trying to get things finished before the enforced shut down. Either way, the ADR crew decided to sit down and chew the fat (as a vegetarian, Matt finds that somewhat offensive), review the year, pinpoint highlights and favourite interviews, before looking forward to what 2020 might bring. Can you believe it’s nearly 2020?!
We also just wanted to say thank you, to the listeners, for all the great support you’ve given us throughout this year. 2019 was a big period of growth for ADR with new presenters coming onboard, Johanna fixing our social and generally just getting better at running a podcast. All the feedback and suggestions we’ve received have been amazing. Keep it coming.

00:56:37Australian Design RadioyesEP116 with Craig Black
In this episode, we spoke with Craig Black a graphic designer, lettering artist and typographer.
Craig is Scottish born and after spending some time in London, he currently runs his own design studio in Gourock, Scotland. He has a diverse style and doesn’t seem to be tied down to any single medium or aesthetic. This has led to an impressive list of clients from all over the globe and a growing list of speaking gigs. Also, he’s just a great guy.
Quite early on Craig talks about how he feels it’s his responsibility to be helping others achieve their goals and encourages people to be proud of their achievements whatever they are. The culture of overtime, his approach to work-life balance and switching off. A big believer in positive affirmations, Craig talks about the value in congratulating yourself more in your work and for personal and professional achievements.
We spoke about how much people connect with artists and designers who put themselves within their work and the value of community including Craig’s initiative in Scotland called Creative Inverclyde, working with prisoners and the value of creativity.
Hosting this episode was Prue Jones and Flyn Tracy. Thank you AGDA for hooking us up with Craig Black during his speaking tour.

00:53:25Australian Design RadioyesEP115 with Andrew Ashton
When it comes to the Australian design industry, there are few as supportive and as accomplished as Andrew Ashton. Across his 30+ professional years, he has consistently advocated on behalf of Aussie creatives and built an international reputation that has seen him awarded many times over. At 34, Andrew was made one of the youngest members of the prestigious Alliance Graphique Internationale, at that time, only the 8th Australian to be invited.
Andrew is great to talk to. Conversations with him tend to roam all over the creative landscape. His experience and thoughtful insight give a unique perspective on what is occurring in the industry. In this episode we dig into his past, look at design in the internet age and talk about what it means to be an Australian creative.
As a testament to his practice, Andrew raised the bar for our guests by turning up with a song playlist, an original poster and three poems that covered the main chapters of the episode. We got him to read the poems on air and they are definitely worth digging into to discover their meanings.
It was a real honour to sit and chat with Andrew, we hope you enjoy it as much as we did. As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts.

00:56:10Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Nick Gower and Saakshi Muralidhar of Mentally Friendly.
Mentally friendly is a group in Sydney that works with health, education, finance, and government to deliver wellbeing at scale. Nick is one of the founders of the business and an advisor to senior product leaders and clients, Saakshi is a senior organisational designer who started her career in product design, you’ll hear some of her journey in the episode.
Both Flyn and Matt have a long history with Mentally Friendly, Matt has known the founders, Nick and Jon longer from time spent at Billy Blue College of Design back in the day and Flyn worked with them on Tractor Design School. Don’t bother googling it, it doesn’t exist more. Wah.
We spoke about design and innovation, operational design, moving from task-based design to more team-based missions and ‘making good intentions real’ as Nick put it so well. We heard about Mentally Friendly’s hiring process where they look for softer skills rather than hard skills and often find applicants are better suited to roles they haven’t even thought of, which was backed up nicely by Saakshi’s story.
We hope you like the episode, let us know what you think!

00:51:02Australian Design RadioyesThis episode, Flyn is in conversation with Head of Endineering, Joe Macleod.
With a 20+ year career in product design, both digital and tangible, Joe has a wealth of experience in UX and HCD. During his time at Nokia and as Head of Design at UsTwo, Joe became concerned about the end of the customer journey and started a campaign to make off-boarding as important as on-boarding. This ultimately led him to write a book called ‘Ends.’ and launch the World's first customer ending consulting business: ‘andEnd.’
In Joe’s own words, focusing on the end may seem counterintuitive and a hard sell to a client that is all about shipping product. So, throughout this episode, we unpack why ‘clean and considered endings’ should be seen as a competitive advantage, not as a barrier to sale. Joe has spent over 15 years thinking about this and has case studies galore but we also find time to relive the early days of UsTwo, when Nokia was the king of phones and how a “profoundly” dyslexic person went about writing a book.

With a 20+ year career in product design, both digital and tangible, Joe has a wealth of experience in UX and HCD. During his time at Nokia and as Head of Design at UsTwo, Joe became concerned about the end of the customer journey and started a campaign to make off-boarding as important as on-boarding. This ultimately led him to write a book called ‘Ends.’ and launch the World's first customer ending consulting business: ‘andEnd.’
In Joe’s own words, focusing on the end may seem counterintuitive and a hard sell to a client that is all about shipping product. So, throughout this episode, we unpack why ‘clean and considered endings’ should be seen as a competitive advantage, not as a barrier to sale. Joe has spent over 15 years thinking about this and has case studies galore but we also find time to relive the early days of UsTwo, when Nokia was the king of phones and how a “profoundly” dyslexic person went about writing a book.

00:49:40Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Chi Ryan National Experience Strategy Lead at PwC.
Chi Ryan makes meaningful products, services and experiences for humans, and humanity — and she’s passionate about empowering others to do the same. She has worked with many of the big names in service design including Fjord, Isobar and Idean and she is now the experience strategy lead at PwC.
We talked about Ancient Egypt and Graham Hancock, using video and motion to communicate, teaching and learning, the circular economy and how we can wake people up to think differently. Chi also shared The Circular Design Program and highlighted the responsibility designers have towards fighting to eradicate industrial waste and pollution.

00:53:20Australian Design RadioyesThis episode sees us sitting with Steve Baty, co-founder and principal of Meld Studios.
Let’s just get this out of the way, Steve is a mad cyclist, so we begin there before he expertly links it back to service design, user experience and how to solve ‘dumb shit’ quickly. Steve has an uncanny ability to see the core of the problem and we talk through a range of case studies that explain Melds approach.
The team at Meld is incredibly diverse, with a wide range of experience and skills, not normally seen in a studio. We discuss this and also look at the importance of community and Steve’s role in UX Book Club, the Good Design Council of Australia, IxDA and the UX Australia conferences. At some point Matt manages to steer the conversation towards education (surprise surprise) and Steve’s multiple academic qualifications.

00:50:36Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Kenjiro Kirton, Co-Founder and Creative Director at Hato.
It’s Saturday afternoon on the last day of The Design Conference in Brisbane. The beers are flowing, the heads are sore and the minds overloaded. Still, we found time to sit down with Kenjiro Kirton, Co-Founder and Creative Director at Hato.
Hato is a unique studio (both in London and Hong Kong) for the way they approach design. Focused on active play and community engagement, you could say their design is based on co-creation, or facilitation, with the end user — leading to some truly unique outputs.
For his part, Kenjiro is incredibly well-researched and curious, always putting the ‘why’ before the what. There are a lot of throwaway references in this episode that are well worth looking up, so have a notepad ready.
Matt was very kindly joined by Yasmin Naghavi (solicitor from Media Arts Lawyers and Alex Naghavi’s sister) and Ben Johnston (Alex’s boss — it all leads back to Alex). It was great to have these two on as they added extra depth to the conversation. Thank you so much for saying yes.

00:52:24Australian Design RadioyesWe’re at the Design Conference in Brisbane and we had the opportunity to sit down with Amanda Munilla, Managing Director, at Wolff Olins.
Amanda, not a designer by trade has had a non-linear path into managing at one of the biggest creative firms in the World. Deciding not to be a lawyer was only the beginning and she has since gone on to build a strong career in strategy. With that in mind, we get into what strategy means, how it’s changed and how Amanda explains it to clients.
Amanda is also a big supporter of Womentor. So we get into what it is, why she got involved and why it’s needed in the industry — now more than ever. We touch on the fact that Wolff Olin's office heads, around the World, are all female. Amanda has a lot to say on this and is passionate that diversity isn’t a token action.

00:55:09Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Tea Uglow, experimental person in charge at google's creative lab, Sydney.
Tea Uglow is one of those very few people who genuinely make you rethink everything you thought you knew. This episode is full of interesting insights into how we can think about technology, inclusiveness, design, and accommodation.
We talk very briefly about her early days at Google in 2006 and how she didn’t particularly see herself working there for long, fast forwarding to today where she works in the idea of information, space and how digital works with humans, technology and culture. We covered how experimentation can be part success and part disaster, our relationship with truth in communication, ethics, inclusiveness and framing problems.

00:58:58Australian Design RadioyesEP105 with Mills and Sinx
Founders and owners of UsTwo, Matt 'Mills' Miller and John ‘Sinx’ Sinclair suddenly find themselves in a very enviable position — leaders of a successful ‘independent’ company, and… not really needed. This is of course ‘designed’ and not without a lot of hard work. But, since bringing in a CEO and senior management the best friends finally get to appreciate what they have built.
In collaboration with Andy Wright and Never Not Creative, we found some time to sit with Mills & Sinx and explore what their company looks like now, how their friendship continues to work after 30 years and what they are going to do with all this spare time. This is an incredibly frank and honest reflection that charts the naïve, hedonistic beginnings of the ‘fampany’ to the realisation that they needed to pull the needle back towards business, making hard decisions and ‘growing up’ in order to protect the company and their 300+ employees. It’s a perfect end of chapter conversation, before beginning the next.

00:54:44Australian Design RadioyesAs Director and co-founder of Small Multiples, Andrea Lau is a data-visualisation specialist. In their words, they are a multidisciplinary team of data specialists, designers and developers, helping people make the best use of their data. Flyn and Matt unashamedly use this as an opportunity to dig into what data is, and how the visualisation of it is affecting many of our day to day decisions. Thankfully, Andrea is incredibly passionate about the education of data and raising everyone’s data literacy, having taught courses and workshops in this area — so, she was accommodating and incredibly informative.
We also spend some time on what it’s like to run a niche studio in an emerging area and why data specialists are becoming such hot property. Towards the end, we discuss the crossover point between data visualisation and art and look at how, as a studio, Small Multiples is trying to present data in non-typical ways — in boutique chocolates for example.

00:48:53Australian Design RadioyesMatt is still in London and he managed to find an empty spot in Pip Jamieson’s — (understandably) very busy — diary (8am after a public holiday). Pip is the founder and CEO of The Dots, a professional network for people in the creative industry. She has been named in numerous ‘ones to watch’ lists and has thrown herself into the world of raising capital and entrepreneurship. She’s passionate about diversity, emerging technology, leadership and creativity — and we managed to weave all of them into this conversation.
Many in Australia will know Pip as the co-founder of The Loop before she moved back to the UK in 2014 to begin the Dots. She’s incredibly curious, constantly learning new things and with a signature infectious laugh — it’s impossible not to be inspired by her. Especially when you consider she is dyslexic, which she considers her ‘superpower’. The Dots is fast positioning itself as the main alternative to LinkedIn so we also manage to get into the details of what makes them different and what’s next.
As always special thanks to Streamtime for their steadfast support and motivation. If you haven’t tried their software yet, well, you’re wasting time, literally.

00:43:08Australian Design RadioyesThis episode Matt is in London and took the time to catch with two old friends, Mark Stott, ECD at Felix® — and, wait for it — Denise Chippindale, Marketing Manager at General Assembly (UK & Europe). Denise very kindly jumped in as co-host and gave great insights into the London design scene and how she’s been keeping busy since she moved over.
Mark has been working on a secret project after closing his studio, Common, and moving to the UK. So in this episode, we dig into what that project is and why it was an offer too good to refuse. Felix® is touted as the world’s most advanced way of measuring, understanding and building resilience to stress. It incorporates machine learning analytics connected to wearable technology. Mark was headhunted to develop the brand and its visual language. This was a massive shift for Mark, focusing on a single brand, in an area he knew little about — so we discuss how he managed that and what he’s learnt along the way.
Thanks to GA for giving us space to record in their London office.

00:55:44Australian Design RadioyesThis episode we’re with Ben Miles, Executive Creative Director at Interbrand Australia.
Ben has been with Interbrand for over a decade and during that time has seen it evolve and change — this is what Ben terms the ‘three horizons of Interbrand Australia’. We spend some time unpacking these periods, why people made the culture and how the studio has tried to ‘stand apart’ from what is expected of them. We also discuss the new ownership and how big data will further evolve the studio.
Matt often refers to Ben as the most optimistic designer he knows, thus the idea of optimism, blind or realistic, is discussed and how Ben’s view on it has changed. Throughout this episode we dig into specific projects (Telstra, G’ AY MATE and The Prince Akatoki), exploring the concepts and how the ideas developed. Ben is a big believer of ideas, but he always wants to know what happens next, how does it grow and get people behind it.

00:50:51Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Katja Forbes Managing Director of Designit.
Katja is the Managing Director of Designit ANZ, Director, she’s on the IxDA global board, one of 100 women of influence and in the top 10 female entrepreneurs in Australia. She's a specialist in research & experience design with the qualifications that go with it, she's an educator, mentor, coach, who gets genuinely excited when talking about being in 'the field' doing research and understanding how humans interact with technology.
We spoke about the diverse career paths people take to get into user experience design and related fields, how tough and lonely it can be to be a sole director of a company, her love for co-design, coaching as a peer-to-peer relationship vs mentorship, what does happiness look like for you as a designer, AI, machine learning and how we as designers must design trust into these invisible decision makers and much more.
This was a Flyn only episode, breaking the rules a little bit while Matt is away in the UK.

Rob Self-Peirson is a writer and brand consultant based in London, UK. He is the founder and head of The Table, an agency devoted to tone of voice and copywriting. He’s worked with the likes of GumTree, British Gas, IKEA, V&A and has a fierce love of design and a desire to see designers and writers working closely together.
Rob was actually in Australia (thanks to the Australian Graphic Design Association) for a round of seven workshops focused on writing for design, encouraging designers to explore and engage with the writing process to improve their design work.
In this episode, we look at Rob’s view on writing and why it’s becoming more and more important in the current design industry. We also get into how he became a writer, the importance of mentors and writing books about the moon.
Special thanks to AGDA for giving us time to talk with Rob and Streamtime for their unwavering support and encouragement. If you haven’t tried their software yet, well, you’re wasting time, literally.

Carlo Giannasca is a multi-award-winning graphic and three-dimensional environmental designer. He is the Head of Urbanite, Design Director and one of the founder/owners of Frost*collective. On top of that, he is the joint chair of Sydney's SEGD chapter (The Society for Experiential Graphic Design). ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
In this episode, we chart Carlo’s introduction to design, from drawing on his bedroom walls to hassling Garry Emery into giving him his first job. With over 30 years of experience, Carlo has seen the industry dramatically change in Australia, we look at this but also explore why he made the move from traditional graphic design to environments. ⁣⁣⁣⁣

We also delve into the idea of self-promotion. With all the success Carlo has had, he’s always preferred to stay out of the spotlight, preferring to keep on the tools as much as possible, taking an active part in building and shaping teams, rather than a profile. ⁣⁣⁣⁣

So when we found out Mike would be at Adobe Max when we were, we jumped at the chance to make it finally happen.
This episode could’ve gone in many different directions because when you talk Mike, you quickly realise he has a vast depth of knowledge when it comes to not only design but explaining and thinking about design. A master communicator, Mike can make the complex simple and the impossible seem possible.
We spoke about his time at University which Mike credits to teaching him how to think and The Chase where he learned how to design. How mike fell in love with design and what it can do, his time in the UK, Australia and a few selected projects happening at R/GA.

Jessica hardly needs an introduction, she is a creative icon and well known for her illustration work, side projects and phenomenal client work. But for those out there who may not know her, she is described on her website as a lettering artist and author with a tendency to overshare and a penchant for procrastiworking.
We spoke about design and life, having children, coming up with ideas and her new amazing book Tomorrow I’ll be Brave. Where her thinking starts when creating a book and how it’s different than creating other design project work.

⁣
In this episode, we spoke with Mark Heaps, designer and synergist.⁣
⁣
Mark is an American designer from Austin Texas who studied art and design in the UK. With his wife, he runs a service group with a small team of designers and production experts. This episode was recorded in Los Angeles as part of our Adobe Max series. ⁣
⁣
We spoke about the beginning of his career and how when his friends were drawn to sketching transformers, he was recreating logos and type from he-man and music albums, his love for ketchup, growing up fascinated in technology, skateboarding, the DIY movement, music and being productive and never wanting to be bored. ⁣

00:45:07Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Birgit Palma Illustrator & Lettering Artist based in Barcelona.
Today, Birgit is known for her Illustration but during her studies, she learned a little bit of everything including illustration, graphic design, 3D and sound design. Her work lands at the sweet spot between modern avant-garde and illustration. This episode was recorded in Los Angeles as part of our Adobe Max series.
We spoke about Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and what impact it might have to artistic work, creating design systems and guidelines for illustrations, her regimented workflow and schedule, how she likes to create impossible imaginative work because the possible is all around us and using instagram as a playground for illustration.

In this episode, we spoke with Adam J Kurtz a designer, artists, author and more from Brooklyn. He is best known for the honesty and humour in his work and his books. True to his online presence, Adam was open, honest, funny and personal when we caught up for a sneaky chat in a press room at Adobe MAX.
We spoke about Adam’s history moving to New York, that time he built a fan site for The Veronica’s, the internet, design, depression, taking ourselves too seriously and the fun fact that we’re all going to die.

00:46:15Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Mark Conlan in Los Angeles as part of our Adobe MAX series. Although it was the last episode we recorded, we still have a lot more to publish!
Mark is a multi disciplined Illustrator from Dublin working and living in Melbourne Australia, Marks work is a combination of emotion, fantastic worlds, playful characters and a beautiful colour palate. Mark creates conceptual based illustration for products, editorial, publishing, advertising campaigns and one-off commissions for clients all around the world.
We spoke about his journey to where he is today, from always being curious and a ‘doodler’ growing up, his animation course in Ireland to graduating during the recession and working for a few years before moving to Melbourne with his partner. It was in Australia that Mark discovered and refined his style by working on one piece of work every day.

00:41:50Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Sally Spratt in Los Angeles as part of our Adobe MAX series.
Sally is an illustrator with graphic design roots who found a following through a passion project entitled The Lust List where she drew images of products she lusted after but couldn’t afford. As well as being represented by Roxy Jacenko at The Ministry of Talent, Sally’s work for clients is incredibly diverse but often focused on speed and getting ideas down quickly, making her perfect for conceptual work and free-flowing watercolour imagery.
In this episode we spoke all about Sally’s backstory and how imposter syndrome is both a good and bad thing, giving us motivation to always over deliver. We look at making the leap to “follow your bliss” and how to get your friends to write your resignation letter. We also looked at some of the new announcements from Adobe that will positively affect her workflow (Project Gemini) and how she plans to diversify into other areas with the help of the new tech (Rush and Photoshop on the iPad).

00:50:44Australian Design RadioyesEP85 with Prue Jones on gender, sex robots and simulations
This session finds us still at the Adobe Symposium 2018, where we ‘finally’ got the chance to sit down with Prue Jones. She has been on our list since the first episode but for whatever reason we’d never been able to make it work. Well, the wait only heightened our anticipation and Prue did not disappoint.
Design and Creative Director of Fjord, Prue has over 30 years of experience in the Creative Industries. Starting in advertising she made the move to graphic/digital design and recently began balancing the roles of futurist and gender equality leader. Two topics she’s incredibly passionate about.
As you might imagine, with that backstory, this conversation went all over the place but somehow remained connected to what we, as designers, as people, can do to make things better. We talk sex robots, the singularity, living in a simulation and becoming a spokesperson for female creatives.
Special thanks to Streamtime for their continued support. If you haven’t started using their software… well, you are missing out.
Thank you to Adobe for having us along for the ride and to Jo Roca (freakin’ legend) for stepping in as co-host.

00:58:09Australian Design RadioyesEpisode 84 with James de Vries on Sea Change and See Change
In this episode we spoke with James de Vries, Principal Director of Strategy at Second Road. James has recently returned to Australia after six years working as Creative Director at Harvard Business Review, where his role centred around raising the voice of design and building the value and effectiveness of design in the company.
We spoke about the contrast between high school and design school, learning that design could be a lightning rod for strategy, how an understanding and sensitivity to good typography makes a good designer, starting a deluxe with his wife, working in the newspaper industry and learning to ‘speak editorial’ and also design, strategy and management. We also dove into his time at HBR, working with Fairfax and his new role at second road.

00:52:48Australian Design RadioyesEP83 with James Victore on Feck Perfuction
In this episode, we had the chance to grab an hour with James Victore backstage at the Adobe Symposium 2018 — and what an hour it was.
James is a designer, artist, educator and author but also an incredibly proud Father. Here we talk about dropping out of art college and going back to teach (at the same school). We look at teaching college students compared to adult professionals and how his teaching/client work has recently changed balance, to incorporate more personal growth retreats.
Most of all we discuss James’ outlook on life and how each day is a chance to learn for him, his book Who Died and Made You Boss? and his recently finished book Feck Perfuction and speaking tour of the same name.
Big thank you to our mates at Streamtime! Keeping us on track and episodes of ADR happening. Also Jo Rocca for joining this episode as guest host and Adobe for having us at Symposium!

01:09:52Australian Design RadioyesIn this special episode, we went to Perth with our friend Frankie Ratford and held a panel with local legendary designers Becky Chilcott, Mark Braddock and Kylie Timpani.
We spoke about work-life balance or lack thereof, burnout, how we deal with moving forward in our work, education, internships and industry and community issues.
This is a recording from a live event so the audio quality isn't perfect, but we believe the content from the panel was excellent and worth sharing.
Big thanks to our mate at Streamtime getting us to and from Perth to run this special event.

00:49:48Australian Design RadioyesFor this episode, we are at The Design Conference in Brisbane, where we sat down with power-duo Meg Donohoe and Mitch Paone to talk about their New York studio, DIA.
Meg and Mitch are incredibly organised and we look at how they manage their schedules so they have time for life/work and what it takes to run a successful consultancy and marriage at the same time.
We also look at their kinetic identity systems, how the concept originated and how their process has needed to change to incorporate a whole new way of working. We explore how they communicate the value of it to their clients and build in time to continually experiment.
Special thanks to Streamtime for helping us make this episode happen, Matt from TDCB for having us and Andy Wright for stepping in for Matt.

01:01:51Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Jack Mussett, Director at Motherbird.
Jack has been on our infamous industry wish list since the beginning of the podcast so it was great to finally get a chance to speak with him in his hometown of Melbourne. We spoke about work-life balance, overdelivering on projects, working with friends, side projects, and diversity. We got philosophical with talk about critical thinking and the meandering brain.
We dove into a few projects including The World Cancer Congress the Melbourne International Jazz Festival as well as some of his personal projects including Word–Form.

00:53:22Australian Design RadioyesThis episode finds us still at the Brisbane Design Conference, finding some time to sit down with our friend, George Rose.
George is a multidisciplinary artist, well known for doing incredibly large walls, blending colours, gradients and textures through hand-rendered type forms. An incredibly honest and free spirit, we got into all things about having a career as a mural artist, how she makes her money and life on the road.
George has a background as a designer before moving over to the street art scene, having studied both art and design in University. We cover off how that move came about and discuss expiry dates and how long she can keep up the physical pace of leaping around ladders and scaling walls.

We cover everything from why he first fell in love with type, to why he remains independent and where the name Klim came from. Josie even gets to bully him into making round periods for Founders Grotesk. What she calls Foundies with Roundies.

00:59:41Australian Design RadioyesGrowing up in a house designed by Phillip Cox, with Marimekko curtains and with a reconditioned printing press in her house, it’s not surprising that Cat eventually found her way into the design world, but the beginning of her career started her off on a different journey.
From a Journalist at channel 7 to public affairs roles with Sydney Water and government organisations she eventually, perhaps inevitably made her way to Emery Vincent where she has spent 15 years and what is now called Frost Collective.
We spoke about purposeful brands and the importance of ideas, we spoke about the shift away from the industrial model of the past to today’s connection economy. We also spoke about equality in the workplace, embracing flexible and inclusive work schedules and how far we’ve come from needing employees to be chained to a desk to add value to a business.

00:54:43Australian Design RadioyesStill in Tassie, still missing Flyn, Andy and Matt spoke with Vanessa Ward, Founder of Nomadism, about her fascinating life.
Now living in Hobart, Vanessa has had a life of travel, study and exploration. A respected strategist, product designer and thinker, Vanessa has worked for some of the most exciting design firms in the World, such as BMD (Bruce MayDesign) and FuseProject before setting up Nomadism in 2016 (with Sandy Oh and Dr Stella Humphries).
This episode charts a biographical path, from Vanessa’s entry into design via Architectonic Jewellery up to the recent building of her first home and what that taught her about design, permanency and sustainable technologies. It’s a roll-a-coaster of a life that is equal parts careful planning and happenstance.

00:56:23Australian Design RadioyesThis time 'round, we spoke with Andrew Johnstone, Founder of Design is Kinky and Creative Director of Foundry.
Flyn had been called away due to a project he was working on so we called in previous guest, Andy Wright to co-host.
Andrew, now living in Launceston, has had a wild and varied career, but one, upon reflection, that could be categorised by following his gut. This ‘gut-feeling’ has led him to establish some of Australia’s most influential events, communities and magazines where he’s sought to expose new talent and shine a light on the more obscure parts of our industry. It’s also led him to walk away from some ventures because it no longer felt right.
In this frank and honest interview, Andrew talks about these beginnings and endings. The highs and the lows. Giving us an amazing insight into his thought process and hints about what could be next.

We spoke about his early graduate days, sending out more than 100 emails to try to get his first gig, until finally landing his first job working with A+B studio (now Wiedemann Lampe). He then moved onto Hat-Trick, (Jim Sutherland's studio) and later Pentagram before moving to Melbourne and ultimately Sydney.
We covered his time working on the Sydney Opera House rebrand where he worked with renounced typographer Laurenz Brunner to create a unique typeface Utzon in product design software Rhino, working with Landor and talked about designers saving the world.

Shannon has over 15 years experience in copywriting and has a unique perspective on the design industry and how writing fits within (and supports) it. An expert in verbal identity design, we spend time digging into how this area differs and crosses over into naming and branding.
As a prominent female leader, Shannon is also involved with a number of initiatives to further gender balance within the creative industries. We discuss M&C’s pledge of 50:50 by 2020 and explore their W&C (Women & Creative) program.

00:54:42Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Ngaio Parr,
We are out and visiting people’s home/studios again, and this time we sit down with the versatile Ngaio Parr, Illustrator, Multidisciplinary Designer, Curator, Teacher and Founder of MakeNice.
Thanks again to Streamtime, who without their support, and our new travelling kit, we couldn’t do this.
Ngaio (you say it Nigh-Oh) works with a whole range of clients such as The New York Times, Thames & Hudson and Redbull but she’s probably best known for MakeNice, a conference/platform/community that seeks to showcase women in design and the issues they face.
This notoriety brings its own issues and we discuss what it means to be known for a movement and how to make sure you are looking after yourself, as well as the community.
We also talk about some of Ngaio’s work, such as the transparent KKK outfit and how that came about. What it’s like working from a home studio and how she keeps herself motivated.

00:54:50Australian Design RadioyesThis episode we did a house call and visited Tarra van Amerongen, Group Director of Fjord, to talk about her role and how she thinks about the future. A massive shout out to Streamtime, as it’s with our new travelling recording kit that we were able to do this.
Tarra has recently had a baby boy so we started there, talking about the change a baby brings and how she wants to redesign the complete hospital experience.
As you might expect, Tarra is an incredibly big thinker and in a position to bring about change through her role with Fjord, her teaching at UTS and her work with the RSA (Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce) – a 260 year old networking group ‘dedicated to enriching society and shaping the future’.
Interestingly Tarra didn’t take the standard design journey, instead studying business and management, working as an Investment Analyst and managing CBA’s Innovation Lab, before moving into more typically creative roles. This experience puts her in a unique position to understand both sides of the corporate/creative divide and we discuss how she navigates it.
Matt first met Tarra through an AGDA panel they were on during VIVID in 2017 entitled Can Technology Make us more Human – you can see that panel at agda.com.au/inspiration/agda-tv/can-technology-make-us-more-human-panel-discussion

00:56:19Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Jordan Stokes, Design Director at Born and Raised.
We spoke about Jord's extensive stint doing internships back in the UK (Flyn goes on a short rant) about this, before talking about his experiences at some amazing studios in the UK including The Case and Music, Riding BMX’s over posters to create work, and working with other talented designers like Craig Oldham. Jord eventually made his way to Australia and worked at Fabric, Ogilvy and Maud before finding his home with Born and Raised.
We really picked Jordan's brain about his passion project Secret 7’s, a non-profit based competition, exhibition and design challenge that you’ll have to listen into the show to really get an understanding on what it’s all about.

00:50:59Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Ben and Paul from UK’s Design Studio.
We spoke about their history growing up in the same small town in Englands’ north and moving to London to start their careers to working at small and large studios to finally getting together to create DesignStudio.
DesignStudio are a powerhouse with clients such as Twitter, Airbnb, EPL and Deliveroo to name a few. Their philosophy is to create a meaningful difference with the brands they work with, to the point where they feel that they become part of that brand and ethos. We also spoke about how to immerse yourself into your clients users, thinking about entire ecosystems and keeping a diverse and balanced workplace.

00:49:00Australian Design RadioyesThis episode was recorded late 2017 on the morning after Leta Sobierajski and Wade Jeffree's AGDA talk in Sydney, just after the solar eclipse – which was pretty pointless in Australia, as we couldn’t see it.
Still, that didn’t stop us having a lively and far reaching conversation about the couple, being both married in life and work. Discovering they are both huge Anime fans led us down a dark and nerdy path, being that Flyn and Matt are also fans. Thankfully (for you) we’ve cut a lot of that.
We also spoke a lot about influences, specifically Arakawa and Madeline Gins, who Leta and Wade have loved for a long time, and obviously covered Wade’s time with Sagmeister & Walsh.
Finally we spoke about Ikko Ikko, and the fact it has nothing to do with the 15th Century uprising in Japan.

00:51:37Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Designer, Director and Animator Tim Clapham of Luxx.
Motion Designers rejoice, we sat down with Tim Clapham of Luxx. If you’ve searched for a tutorial for motions design chances are you’ve heard Tim’s voice guiding you through some new feature or process. Tim is an industry heavyweight so we brought own on motion expert Ian Haigh along to ask some pointy questions.
We spoke about Tim’s relationship with Maxon and his experience as part of the beta testing team, his approach to tutorials and why he does them. We also spoke about making titles for Adobe MAKE IT, collaborating with other creatives like (friend of the show) Mike Tosetto, Ash Boland, Patrick Clair and studios like Spinfx.

00:48:26Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Kitiya Palaskas, Craft-based Designer from Melbourne.
We spoke about podcasting goths, goth dads and being a goth in the United Arab Emirates, yep, with Kitiya Palaskas you never know where the conversation will go. This episode was recorded at the Adobe Make It conference in Sydney. Ian Haigh sits in for Flyn, who was busy helping run the event.
Kitiya has long been on our list of must-haves and she did not disappoint. In a wide-ranging conversation we discussed building signature styles and working out how to describe what you do, so clients can find you, even when you find it hard to describe yourself. She’s recently tried to sum it all up under ‘craft-based designer’ but, as she points out, the SEO stats aren’t great on that term. We also talked about working freelance, setting up a workspace and getting in the right frame of mind in order to create.

Warning, we talk about people and experiences in war zones and PTSD which may be triggering for some listeners.
We were lucky enough to be at the Australian Adobe Make It conference and managed to get some time with Photographer, Nicole Tung. Flyn was involved with running the conference so we grabbed our good friend Ian Haigh to help co-host this episode.
We spoke a lot about what she does, how she does it, and why she keeps doing it. Being shot at, dealing with PTSD and reintegrating into western society are just some of the topics we covered as we got a good insight into the life of a war photographer.
One of the calmest, collected and open personalities we’ve had on the show. If you want more of Nicole there is a great NetFlix doco she features in called Conflict. You can see it here on RedFitz

Lauren’s playful approach to her work is in stark contrast to her work savvy and approach to promotion and business acumen. She has an appreciation for all things arty, crafty and vintage which shows through her work.
We spoke about Lauren’s approach to treating social media followers well by trying to reply to everyone, working in isolation from home to speaking onstage and interacting with new and existing audiences. We also spoke about Wacom’s Next Level Competition, The Design Conference Brisbane, freelance life and tuning out with music.

00:49:46Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Graham Barton, creative director of Folk.
Folk is a 30+ strong independent brand identity and UX design consultancy in Sydney. Graham’s focus is on brand strategy and its creative expression. Thoughtful design. Ideas and keeping things simple. Searching for the surprisingly obvious.
Prior to his now six years at Folk, Graham was seven years as design director at Principals, plus other stints including The Partners and Enterprise IG (Horniak and Canny).
We spoke about Folk’s 2016 Poster’d project, UX ‘design’ and visual design, AGDA, and the need for graphic designers to stand up and be heard.
Graham shared his experiences of being prepared to look stupid, the ‘just right’ amount of ego, letting the back of the head do the thinking (and talking), and that everything always comes down to Spock and Kirk.
All of which, yes, does sound illogical, captain.

00:59:33Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Mark Gowing interdisciplinary artist working across communications, publishing and visual art and Founder of Formist.
As big fans of Mark Gowings work over the years, we giddily spoke about his membership to AGI (Alliance Graphique Internationale) and the impact it has had on him, publishing, inspiration and art objects, changes at Formist, working without clients and becoming self-generative.
We also spoke about minimalism, reduction, restraint, starting with notes and drawing for projects and finding the balance between listening to yourself vs listening to clients.

00:51:45Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Nick Bannikoff, Design Manager of Brand Culture.
Starting as an industrial designer, Nick moved into environmental design and saw the transition from that slightly confusing name into how it is now known, as experiential design. Yep, nothing to do with sustainable green environment work with Greenpeace.
As an experiential designer (the first we’ve had on the show), Nick is involved in the end-users experience of space and how they transition from place to place. This was a perfect chance for us (who have no idea about this stuff) to dig in and find more about what Nick does day to day and how these types of design decisions affect our engagement with space.
Nick is also Co-Chair (along with Carlo Giannasca of Frost) of the Australian chapter of SEGD (The Society for Experiential Graphic Design), a not-for-profit professional association dedicated to increasing awareness of experiential design to the public and other design professionals. The chapter is only a few months old so we took the time to explore why Australia needs a professional body like this and what they plan to do in the near future.

Born & Raised, an agency that sits comfortably within branding, design and campaign driven projects. Enduring brand strategy and design craft underpins commercially-driven brands, campaigns, content and experiences.
We spoke with Chris about his journey from backing himself through Award School and learning the graphic design ropes at Shillington College all while working full-time cutting his industry teeth. We spoke about the fabled Moon days where Chris was General manager working with many familiar names to ADR. Chris shared some tips on pitching, thoughts on education, running teams and working with good people.

Nick is now Senior Designer at Interbrand Sydney after four years of running Nowhere Famous with business partner and best pal Mig Sicari. Nowhere famous is known for their tactile and craft based approach from a book about delivering content online for google to physical anamorphic projections.
We spoke about not sleeping when you have a kid, how Nick went through his design career backwards to writing, naming your studio based on a Simpsons reference, taking the time to think about the problem and how sometimes to get to the good idea you need to over deliver.

00:51:35Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Illustrator, Letterer, Artist and Designer Gemma O’Brien.
Gemma is one of the most well known illustrators in Australia right now. Over the past five years or so, she has been constantly in demand for her murals, illustrations, artwork and speaking gigs here in Australia and also around the world. Her work takes on a variety of forms, from calligraphic brushwork, illustration and digital type.
We spoke about the value of temporary works due to their fleeting nature, the challenge of keeping up with what the industry is craving, living in an experience driven age when it comes to cultural value, the inevitable commercialisation of authenticity and much more.

In this episode, we catch up with our very first guest and good friend, Frankie Ratford from The Design Kids.
We interviewed Frankie in our very first ADR episode and since then, Frankie has been on a mammoth two-year trip, covering New Zealand, the United States and Canada, connecting designers, building TDK cities and spreading the Aussie design love.
When we sat down with her she had two days left before she headed back to her seaside shack in Tasmania for a much needed break. It was the perfect time to gather her thoughts about what she had achieved in that time and hear the crazy stories of what life on the road can be.

00:43:18Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke to designer, author, illustrator, artist, experimenter Timothy Goodman from New York.
Recorded during the second day of the Adobe MAX conference in San Diego we took some time away from activities to sit with Tim and talk through his recent projects and his thoughts on design as a practice, not a profession.
Tim is well known for his collaborations with Jessica Walsh on the cult 40 days of dating and the more recent 12 kinds of kindness in which they explored projects to increase their understanding of empathy. Tim’s second book, The Sharpie Workshop explores his love of the permanent markers and how they have influenced his work and writing.

In this episode, we spoke to designer and illustrator Dan Styles from Portland, Oregon.
This was recorded during the Adobe MAX conference where we were surrounded by some international superstars, so we broke some of own rules and made Dan our first non-ANZ guest. We also took the opportunity to give a quick run down of what we were seeing on the first day of the conference and how we were feeling about it.
Dan is best known for his music posters which have been recently collected into a book entitled ‘One thing leads to another’ which perfectly sums up his creative process and approach to life. We also speak about Portland and it’s creative community, the need to keep connected, children’s books and how terror keeps us going.

James is the first New Zealand creative to come on the show. We met James while visiting San Diego for the Adobe MAX Conference and found the time to sneak away for a chat. James is often referred to as a technical photographer and his work speaks for itself.
We spoke about photographers that James gets inspiration from outside of the fashion world, building sets, giving up control vs delegating on projects, inventing sign language to communicate with models on a shoot, the dark side of social media and being on the other side of the camera.

S1T2 today stands for Story 1st Technology 2nd which is an apt name for a company that tinkers with new technology to tell stories. S1T2 operates from Surry Hills in Sydney and we focused on the Virtual Reality and emerging technology side of the business.
We spoke about experiential technology and how people feel when they physically interact with physical installations and objects. We covered real time design and development, embedded systems, post rationalisation and reverse engineering projects and how it can be different to a typical brief and deliver process.

00:50:21Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Dave Foster of Foster Type.
Dave is an independent designer based in Sydney who we all know about thanks to his typographic work through Foster Type. He draws typefaces and lettering for design studios, type foundries, brands and individuals around the world.
We heard about how Dave became a type designer, and along the way, we find out what the difference is between a typographer, a letterer and a type designer is – he just happens to do all three. We also talk through some of his most recent jobs, working with Re: on the Optus rebrand and his personal project Tour De Fonts, where he designs a new typeface to match each stage of the Tour De France – within the time that it takes them to ride it (about 4 or 5 hours).

00:59:15Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Lara (Allport) Horsley, Founder and CEO of The National Grid and The Drawing Arm.
Lara Horsley/Allport arrived in Australia in 1999 and found her start in niche publishing houses focused on sound and technology. It’s here she met Simon Barrett and formed a friendship that led to running and owning two influential design businesses together. On top of this, she’s a devoted Mum (of two boys under three) and an illustrator/artist in her own right.
The National Grid has just turned 10, so we get a chance to explore what’s changed over that time and lessons learnt. In particular, we look at how to create a great environment for the team and the importance of work/life balance in an ever-busy industry.

00:56:54Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Nigel Macquet, Head of User Experience and Design for News Corp.
Originally from South Africa, Nigel began his 16-year design career in print, but quickly made the move to digital and is probably best known for his award-winning work on the relaunch of SBS sites (over 100 of them) and their video on demand service which now runs on over 21 different platforms. This job led him to be noticed in the user experience circles and landed him a job at News Corp where he heads up product development, style guides, and design architecture.
We talk about the biggest issues he’s facing, how he manages the day-to-day and what he’s planning for in the digital future. When we originally contacted Nigel, he was actually at a Mexico retreat with many of the Worlds largest news service UX leaders. So we get into a bit of what happened there (what he can tell us at least) and what it’s like being part of the UX Illuminati. On top of this, we geek out on StarCraft, GoT, and 100 other small tangents.

Semi-Permanent is an event many of us are familiar with and we spoke a lot about the early days of the conference, to where the platform of SP is now and where it's going in the future. We found out that some people sat next to Banksy and Shepard Fairey at one of the earlier conferences without even knowing it. [mind = blown]

Quite possibly one of the most down to earth and nicest people we've spoken with on ADR, Mike Tosetto also happens to be a wildly talented motion designer, specialising in 2D and 3D motion graphics. Mike started his rise to prominence at Interbrand, in the company of some exceptionally talented individuals and friends of the show Chris Doyle and Chris Maclean. Waving the motion designer flag, Mike made a name for himself within the industry for helping communicate branding to clients and their audiences.
We spoke about his transition from full-time studio life to starting his own business, making his first hire, his roller coaster of a career from playing the didgeridoo at Glastonbury to running tourist tours in the Northern Territory.

00:57:37Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Chris Doyle, Creative Director and Founder of Christopher Doyle & Co.
One of our most listened to shows from last year was the second episode with Christopher Doyle, and as it’s been nearly a year to the day we thought we’d have him back to fill us in on what he’s been up to. When we first started the podcast the plan was to have a few key people appear more than once so we could see how successful they had become after appearing on the show. That was a joke.
Chris has been busy moving studios, employing new staff and hosting the AGDA Awards with his good friend Ian Haigh. We delve into all of this and explore the purpose of awards in an industry where it is just as important to have a following on Instagram as it is to win an award. We also look at the pitfalls of the hiring process and how it’s affected by social media.
Chris is also appearing at Semi-Permanent Sydney this year off the back of a successful appearance in New Zealand where he got to hang out with Jessica Walsh and Michael Bierut, two people he hugely admires, so we spend a little time talking about them and how their work has influenced us.

00:51:03Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Jess Huddart, CEO at Josephmark.
With offices in Brisbane, Sydney and Los Angeles, Josephmark was founded by Ben (Joseph) Johnston and Joshua (Mark) Capelin in 2004. They first gained national recognition when Twitter bought their music finding application, We Are Hunted but went on to best that by being handpicked to redesign Justin Timberlake’s MySpace. These days they balance their client work with a number of in-house ventures, the most recent being Vest, a site dedicated to shining a light on Australian start-ups.
Jess joined Josephmark in 2005 and has been instrumental in their success. In 2014, she spoke at TedX SouthBank and wowed the audience with her open and honest account of vulnerability and dealing with people’s reactions when she started dating her boss (Ben). In this episode, we discuss her decision to go there, especially when public speaking is one of her least favourite things.

Maggie made a real name by getting involved in the local industry, Sydney Creative Mornings and through working on large clients within Moon and then later at Frost before heading overseas to join Font Font, a foundry of the famous FontShop.
Big believers in happenstance we were lucky enough to bump into our dear friend, Maggie Tang. Maggie was on holidays in Sydney from Berlin where she moved nearly three years ago, so we jumped at the chance to sit down and find out how it happened and what it’s been like living and designing in Germany. Maggie also talks to us about what it’s like to work for a company full of software engineers and developers devoted to sound.

00:48:15Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with each other.
We kick the conversation off by listing off the designers we would love to chat to during the next season before heading into the Hillary Clinton logo meme - it’s making World news at the moment and if you haven’t already read the stories then Milton Glaser’s piece on the AIGA blog is well worth a look.
We discuss the Apple Watch and why Matt bottled out at the last second and bought a record player instead (knowing full well he will look at Flyn’s wrist with jealousy) and we examine some of the design events happening during VIVID Sydney at the end of May. Finally, we talk about being part of the Jack Winter event next month and how on earth we are going to do a live event. In this episode, we spoke with each other.

00:34:36Australian Design RadioyesIn this episode, we spoke with Julie Faktor freelance design writer and Co-Founder/Creative Director of Yonder.
Along with her business partner, Benjamin Gay Yonder creates a hybrid service bringing advertising and design together under one roof. This is a good analogy for Julie as well who throughout recent years has sought to bring more awareness to each side in the advertising/design divide through her work with the AGDA and AWARD councils.
We spend some time in this conversation talking about living in San Francisco and working with the legendary Goodby Silverstein & Partners. Julie was in San Francisco during not only the Dot Com Boom but also for its Bust so we discuss what the city felt like in its peak and after the dust settled.

Amy has had a long history of working both in and out of client-side so she’s the perfect person to give both sides of the story. As you’ll guess from her accent, Amy has only been in Australia for about two years. Previously working for Deloitte in both Sydney and Melbourne she hails from New York where she worked for corporate giants such as Johnson & Johnson and Weight Watchers when they were just a start up.
Because of her recent arrival she was also the right person to answer last week’s question from Chris Billing when he asked about distinctly Australian design. Amy talks about what she knew about Australian design before arriving and what she knows now that she’s been immersed in it.
